Sweetheart, you should have been my daughter. I have been up since 3 a.m. I get soo excited over just about anything cute, new, interesting, especially handmade originals are the best. I just love the excitement in your writing. Thank you for being here. Love Sandy

Beautiful table and I can’t believe it was so cheap!….Ohhh BTW…..you’re gonna do great!! just remember, probably 80% of us read and comment on your blog in our PJ’s and no makeup….so just imagine us THAT way….

Hey lady, that is one modern spiffy eye-catchin’ table you thought of there!

It is just after 8am, so I have time to think of you in my prayers – no need to be nervous, you are awesome, just be yourself and nothing more. You are very well liked and admired and appreciated – nothing to be worried about. Just be your ‘ole Rock Star Self!

I sure wish I could be there, but am there in spirit, sincerely and truly.

Oh, Miz karianne-no-capitals-or-spaces-needed…..you MUST have figured out by now that Rock Stars can do anything they decide they want to do. Obviously, you are a Rock Star. Ergo….YOU can do anything you want to do. And everything you do is wonderful, so where’s the problem? So what if your knees shake a little, and your heart is trying to find an escape route…nobody will notice because it’s all taking place on the inside…..but on the outside…..is that cool, calm, collected redhead, with the shiny new red lipstick, killer earrings, and winsome smile…..knocking ‘em off their feet! You know, kinda like you did when you first met your hubby! See? Another ‘marriage’ made in Heaven! You got this, girl. No sweat. Just think of it as another come apart moment. LOL Can’t wait to hear how it goes!

Haha, gotta love the reality check from our kids right?? But Denton is right, you will do awesome…that is what has made you such a successful blogger – we all wish we could be just like YOU – seriously! So relax, be you and have fun making everyone happy

You are going to be AMAZING…the only thing I am upset about is that I won’t be able to hear you! You are going to rock the blogging world and look fabulous in those earrings while doing it!!! Sending tons of hugs…break a leg : ) I know…it’s not Broadway…but you know what I mean!

Ha ha ha, I’m laughing because I am picturing how this table would turn out if I gave it a try. I would NEVER measure right, the true middle would not be found and those little chains would be off center and the square picture frame would be hanging crazily askew! Yes, I know myself better than to think I could really pull this off! Never in a million years would it come out right for me! I so admire when someone else can do something like this, though, and then give directions that make it sound so easy! Not only can you make a table like this but you can blog about it too! Oh, and then go and give a talk about blogging. Yes, I am in awe. Sitting here in my early morning attire (Don’t look at the clock… I know it’s 12:30!) with no red lipstick on and my toenails all chipped! Have a wonderful time at the blogging conference, KariAnne!

Hi KariAnne,if your speech turns out anything like all the projects that you do,then you definitely have NO worries!Love the table,it looks awesome.I am so amazed at how creative you are!!!!!!(are you by any chance related to Martha Stewart???)Best of luck with your speech.

You have a natural warmth that comes through in everything you write…every day! Im SURE you will dazzle them…and the new lipstick wont hurt! Good Luck tomorrow, although, you dont need it!….. and my gramma always used to tell me when speaking to a large group, always picture them in their underwear…haha not sure if that will be good or bad

Girl, I am sure it went superbly and by now your are probably tucked into bed (or up chatting with your many friends!). I have tried to go to Haven the last two years and have FAILED. Just not in the cards for me yet but it will happen one day.

I am sure the crowd loved you. Other than meeting many new friends last year, for me you were the highlight of the Southern Blogger’s Conference last year. You were cute and funny and I just wanted to hug you (but I didn’t cause I didn’t want to frighten ya!). I hadn’t read your blog before that day, but now it is one of my favorite reads. You have a sense of style like no one else, a home that makes me drool and a writing style that I absolutely love!

Kari, the ONLY complaint I had about your presentation at Haven was it WAS TOO DANG SHORT!!! HAHA! I specifically picked your class just to hear you and Heather speak (my favorites from the Southern Bloggers Conf). I ended up learning SO much and found another favorite speaker with Tauni! Tell your husband that I can verify that you didn’t intentionally not call your kids, you weren’t ever left alone long enough to have any privacy! I guess that’s what happens when you are a ROCK STAR! You are awesome and everyone loved you! Can’t wait to see you again!
